The truth about coney dogs, is they did come from a restaurant in Michigan, in 1914.

The coney dog is a grilled hot dog, smothered in chili sauce, with onions, mustard, and cheese, served up on a bun. The sauce can be homemade, but for the sake of time, I usually keep a can of the sauce on hand in the pantry. They are easy and fast to make, and kids love them.
